One of the perks of creating fantasy stories -- whether by writing a story or
game or by role-playing -- is you get to make up the names. Some people
relish the task while others are frustrated by it. Some like it but can't seem
to create names that are diverse enough. Fantasy Name Generator is
a tool that can help you. It can generate an endless number of random names
(of people, places, or anything) that would be suitable for use in a fantasy
setting. It can generate names on its own, or you can tell it what kind of
name you're looking for. Feel free to use this tool and any name that comes
out of it (assuming it doesn't accidentally generate a legally protected
trademark or something).
In addition, this tool can be fairly amusing to use even if you don't have any
name creating to do. Once in a while, the names it can generate are downright
comical.
You can use the fantasy name generator below. Here's
instructions for using the generator.
You can also read about the history of the name
generator, which discusses name generators in general and how I came to
write this one.
| Use one of the two forms to the right to generate lists of random fantasy names. Start by using one of the drop down lists to select what type of names to generate, then hit the Generate Names button next to it. |

| This name generation form is almost limitless in its flexibility, but you'll have to read the instructions to learn how to use it, as it's somewhat involved. Or, if you just need a reminder, check out the quick reference guide. |
